Chloé Crane-Leroux’s Sweet Potato Waffles With Coconut Cream, Maple Syrup & Berries

Start your day with this exclusive recipe from Chloé's just-released cookbook.

Welcome to Put on a Spread, a recipe series that takes you inside the kitchens – and dining rooms – of some of our favourite home cooks. For this instalment, New York City-based author and plant-based cook Chloé Crane-Leroux shares an exclusive recipe from her new cookbook ‘The Artful Way to Plant-Based Cooking: Nourishing Recipes and Heartfelt Moments’ for Sweet Potato Waffles With Coconut Cream, Maple Syrup & Berries.

Ingredients

  • 1 small sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 1½ cups (375 mL) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5 mL) pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 flax egg: 1 tablespoon (15 mL) flaxseed meal stirred into 2 tablespoons (30 mL) warm water 1 cup (250 mL) unsweetened oat milk
  • 2 tablespoons (30 mL) melted coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon (15 mL) maple syrup, plus more for serving
  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) vanilla extract kosher salt
  • ½ cup (125 mL) berries, such as blackberries, husk cherries, or your choice, for topping
  • ½ cup (125 mL) unsweetened coconut cream or unsweetened plain vegan coconut yoghurt, for topping

Method

1. Bring a small pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the sweet potato and cook until soft when pierced with a fork or knife, about 10 minutes. Drain and mash – you should have about ½ cup (125 mL).

2. Sift the flour, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice together into a medium bowl.

3. In another medium bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potato, flax egg, oat milk, coconut oil, 1 tablespoon (15 mL) maple syrup, the vanilla, and a pinch of salt.

4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Allow the mixture to rest 15 to 30 minutes before cooking in a waffle iron until crispy.

5. Serve the waffles topped with the berries, coconut cream, and maple syrup.
